SMASH! (new cover), released 20 May 2015!

Dear Friends,
My first book, SMASH!, will be reprinted in a new cover and will be released on 20 May 2015.
Here's the cover looks like.

In the end of March 2015, I have sent a new script to a publisher and perhaps they will inform me the assessment result, whether they accept  or decline it, in the beginning of July 2015.
At this moment I also in the process of making revision of my previous script - which I said it needed a lot of work, hopefully I can finish it next month. Again, wish me luck.

Thank you... :).

Still long way to go

Dear friends,
I am sorry about my latest post on the new book tease. Well, I've just got the news that there's a lot of work to do with the script and I decided to end the process, so it will not be published anytime soon. I am so sorry for letting you down. My plan is that I will revise it (when I find the right time) and perhaps send it to another publisher. Meanwhile, I am now writing a new script, hopefully it will go smoothly. I plan to send it to a publisher in the next two or three months.
Wish me luck :).

I really thank you for your supports.

Love,
-Noni-

My New book is ....

Dear Beloved Friends,
I just realize that I haven't been around for months! I'm so sorry... I think I'm pretty busy...or pretty lazy.
Well, at least I have finished the script for the new book and sent it to the publisher. There will be a little revision, but hopefully it will be published this year :). I'll tell you more detail when everything is clear, okay?
Another news, I have agreed to joint this cooperation between GagasMedia and Yayasan Mitra Netra (the event, "Disabilitas Tanpa Batas", will be on 22 March 2014 in the Library of the Ministry of Education and Culture), which I agree to give the licenses of my books, "Dia" and "Sempurna" to be transferred to audio book for our friends with special need. They might be able to hear the story of the books in the near future. I certainly hope so. Sharing the good moments from the books to others is one of the privilege I really appreciate.
Do you have any ideas who might be the perfect persons to lend her/his voice for the book reading of "Dia" and "Sempurna"? If you know anyone who are capable to do it, please let him/her know about the event. Thank you in advance :).
I'll get back to you when there's an update on my upcoming book. Wish me luck.

Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri 1434 H, Mohon Maaf Lahir dan Batin

Dengan segala kerendahan hati, saya memohon maaf atas segala kesalahan dalam ucapan dan perbuatan, baik yang disengaja maupun tidak.

Love,

Der erste Geburtstag

Good morning.
Hi, hi. A very good morning indeed. See when I am really busy? I missed to post anything in May! Well, let's say May is a blue month, so I'll keep it myself this time. But, actually there was a shinny moment as well. I had a new niece on 25 May 2013. A gorgeous one. I hope she will be an independent, caring, strong and smart girl. Amen.
Another delightful news is that today is my Twinkle Little Star's day! Some milestones have been reached. Others hopefully will follow. Run, my dear, run! Hm, what can I say. A happy little one makes a happy  mom. It's amazing to witness a tiny human being on the process and on the progress. I still can't believe that I smile from ear to ear just to see her giggle over a yellow hanging star above the crib. Or the way she reaches the lift's button. Or the twinkle in her eyes to see the chicken, alive or cartoon.
So, waving, clapping, dancing, combing, getting down from the bed in correct way, asking for food, recognizing things and people have been on the list. More to go. She needs to be ready for the next level, as a toddler, because soon when she is transferred to the upper class, she will meet the darling chaos. And it can be a jungle.
But, do not worry, my dear. I know you can handle it. You're one tough cutie.Go! Go! Go!

Ahem, now time to be serious.

Dear Twinkle Little Star,
Happy birthday my sweet baby.
My love for you will never end.
Like my mom who would always be there for me,
I will too, always be there for you.
May you be happy, be kind.
Be healthy, be fun.
Be caring, be nice.  
Be smart, be wise.
Be who you are.

Tak gadhang biso urip mulyo,
dadiyo wanito utomo,
ngluhurke asmane wong tuwo,
dadiyo pendekaring bongso.

Nightmare

Yesterday, for two consecutive days precisely, I had bad dreams. And the nightmare actually happened, finally. Well... Somebody can indeed be nobody. The right will be the right, no matter how long it is buried. So will the wrong.

Oh, no!

Oh, I missed the March's posting. Was I too busy or what?
Anyway, happy new month. It's 1st of April. Some people say it's April Mop. I think I will go with April Full (since no red dates in calendar..huff). Tell you what, last Saturday I took Twinkle Little Star to Safari Park in Puncak. The last thing I thought was the possibility of the vehicle made trouble. But it did. And coincidentally, the trouble was pretty much alike with one Koh Hun Bun and I had when we went to Sidoarjo couple years back. You know, the locked doors? Surprisingly, Koh Hun Bun managed to lock (again) the whole door in one swing, while the machine was on. And the car was not even automatic one! How come? Bad luck? Perhaps. We had to stay in the restaurant almost two hours to wait for the locksmith. The locksmith came (we did not know he was already there since we did not know which one the locksmith was), but somehow he went back to his house, and even had eye treatment first in clinic, then did some other business, then he came back to the restaurant. Ironically, he unlocked the car in just five minutes. Huh! 
Other than that, the vacation was great. Twinkle Little Star was amazed by the elephants that she forgot to blink in a long time. Atah...atah! she said.
